In the early seventies I wrote a song in the traditional style called The Bold Knight and gave it to Sean Cannon, who began to sing it at folk clubs, at one gig in London, might have been the singers club, I can't remember, both Ewan McColl and Bert Lloyd were in attendance and both agreed this was an old border ballad, the song was about eight weeks old at this time, which proves even the greats can be wrong.
